The SDI Rescue Diver Course is designed to develop the knowledge and necessary skills to effectively perform diver rescues and assist and administer the necessary first aid in the event of an emergency. You will learn skills such as how to perform self rescues, buddy rescues, recognize and calm potential panic divers, administer proper first aid to divers that have experienced dive related injuries, conduct effective search patterns and manage accident scenes. After the SDI Rescue Diver Course you can enroll in the SDI Master Scuba Diver Development Program or start in the professional ranks and sign up for the SDI Divemaster Course.

We are opening up our Rescue class in August to people that have already been certified as rescue divers. If it has been a while and your skills are rusty a great way to refresh them would be to join us and play victim and help out on the sidelines! We are going to charge $100 for this, you can join 1 or both open water days! The more the merrier!

Please RSVP for this event. However, you are not registered until you call the shop (425) 747-8842 and confirm your space to get your online training code.
The TDI Intro to Tech course is an ideal starting point for divers curious about technical diving, a more advanced and specialized branch of recreational diving. This course provides a detailed exploration of the distinct techniques, planning procedures, and skills that distinguish technical diving from traditional sport diving. Participants will learn to enhance their dive planning methods, refine in-water skills, and streamline their gear setup in a supportive and enjoyable learning environment.
The course focuses on several key skills:

• Advanced Buoyancy Control
• Gas Management
• Situational Awareness
• Trim
• Gear Configuration and Selection

Designed as a comprehensive introduction, the TDI Intro to Tech course serves not only as a gateway to more advanced technical diving courses, such as TDI Advanced Nitrox and Decompression Procedures, but also as an opportunity for seasoned divers to polish their skills. This course is perfect for those looking to advance their diving capabilities, whether or not they pursue further technical training.

What if your dive didn't have to end when your no-decompression limit did?
The TDI Advanced Nitrox and Decompression Procedures course is your first step into the world of technical diving. This is where divers move beyond recreational limits and learn the skills, procedures, and mindset required to safely plan and execute staged decompression dives.
This course is not about collecting another certification card.
It's about becoming a more capable, disciplined, and confident diver.
During this course you'll learn:
• Advanced dive planning and gas management
• The theory and practical application of decompression diving
• Use of enriched air nitrox blends up to 100% oxygen
• Stage cylinder configuration and management
• Gas switch procedures
• Decompression strategies and execution
• Emergency procedures and problem solving
• Team diving protocols and communication
• Precision buoyancy, trim, and situational awareness
You'll spend significant time refining the fundamental skills that technical diving demands. Small mistakes that might go unnoticed on a recreational dive become critical during decompression diving. This course teaches you how to anticipate problems, manage risk, and execute dives with a level of precision most divers never develop.

By the end of the course, you'll be qualified to plan and conduct basic staged decompression dives while utilizing accelerated decompression gases within TDI standards. More importantly, you'll understand the "why" behind every decision you make underwater.
Who should take this course?

• Divers interested in technical diving
• Photographers and explorers looking to extend bottom time
• Divers who want to improve their skills beyond recreational limits
• Anyone considering future training in Trimix, CCR, Cave, or Advanced Wreck Diving
Technical diving doesn't begin with depth.
It begins with discipline.
If you're ready to become a more capable diver and take the next step in your diving journey, this course is for you.
